Hidden passengers traveling in ships, trams, or even cars can be a terrible trouble — especially when they are insects. As for this, there is a great 1 between human beings and insects. The 2 take every possible effort to avoid being discovered, while the latter quickly 3 attention to themselves.
We can only show mercy to the 4 man who had to stop his car soon after setting out from a country village to drive to London. Hearing a strange noise from the
5 of the car, he naturally got out to examine the wheels carefully, but he found nothing wrong, so he 6 his way. Again the noise began, 7 and became even louder. Quickly turning his head, the man saw what appeared to be a great 8 cloud following the car. When he stopped at a village further on, he was told that a queen bee must be hidden in his car as there were thousands of bees 9 .
On learning this, the man drove away as quickly as possible. After an hour's 10 driving, he arrived safely in London, where he parked his car outside a 11 and went in. It was not long before a customer who had seen him arrive 12 in to inform him that his car was 13 with bees. The poor driver was 14 that the best way should be to call a 15 .In a short time the man arrived. He found the unwelcome passenger hidden near the wheels at the back of the car.

解析试题分析:本文讲述了一个人的后车轮附近藏着一只蜂王,导致一群蜜蜂追随它的汽车的故事。最后他给养蜂人打电话,让他把蜜蜂给取走了。
【小题1】考查名词。connection连接; difference不同; communication 交流,通讯; similarity相似。这里指的是人与昆虫的区别,注意下文提到的the former(前者)和the latter(后者)是在对两者的不同作比较。故选B。
【小题2】考查名词。passengers乘客; insects昆虫; former前者; first第一。根据下文the latter quickly,所以与它相对应,故选C。
【小题3】考查动词。give给; keep保持; pay花费; draw attention 引起注意。句中的while 表对比。前面说偷乘车辆或船只的人通常都会尽量不让人发现,而“偷”乘车辆或船只的昆虫则不同,怎么个不同?那就是它们会draw attention (引起注意)。故选D。
【小题4】考查形容词。unfortunate不幸的; careless粗心的; unpleasant讨厌的,令人不快的; hopeless没有希望的。根据下文可知,这个人很不走运。故选A。
【小题5】考查名词。front前面; back后面; left左边; right右边。根据文章最后一段倒数第2句He found the unwelcome passenger hidden near the wheels at the back. of the car 可知,此处应填 back。故选B。
【小题6】考查动词。drive开始; continue继续; push推; forc强迫。既然通过检查没有发现什么问题,所以他就继续(continue)赶路。故选B。
【小题7】考查副词。normally正常地; gently轻轻地; quietly安静地; immediately立刻。由于是一种奇怪的声音,并且他几次下车查看,说明这种声音不算normally;又由于后面说…became even louder,说明它不gently;actually 在此不合语境。故选D,指车一开动,又马上出现了那种声音。故选D。
【小题8】考查形容词。black黑色的; beautiful漂亮的; white 白的; colorful彩色的。根据下文可知,跟在车后的是一群蜜蜂,作者把它形容成一团乌云,故用black。故选 A。
【小题9】考查介词。below在……下面; ahead向前; nearby在附近; behind在后面。
根据上下文语境可知,这群蜜蜂不是在车底,是在附近,也不是前面,也不是在车后面。故选C。
【小题10】考查形容词。boring烦人的; careful仔细的; exciting令人高兴的; hard难的。司机尽量把车开快希望能甩掉其后的蜜蜂,这样的的驾驶肯定很hard。故选D。
【小题11】考查名词。hotel旅馆; museum历史博物馆; hospital医院; school学校。根据下文提到a customer 可排除B、C、D。故选A。
【小题12】考查动词。break打破; move移动; hurry匆忙; drop下降。因为这位看见他停车的顾客发现他的车上满是蜜蜂,所以就匆忙匆忙(hurried)进来告诉他。故选C。
【小题13】考查形容词。be crowded with 挤满了……;be covered with 被……所覆盖;be filled with装满……;be equipped with 由……所装备。根据语境,只有B较合适。故选B。
【小题14】考查动词。advis建议; require要求; order命令; request请求。advise sb that… 意为“建议某人……”,此处用的是该结构的被动式,其意为“有人建议他……”。故选A。
【小题15】考查名词。bee-keeper养蜂人; policeman警察; waiter服务员;repairman修理工。要对付这批蜜蜂,显然只有bee-keeper(养蜂人)最合适。故选A。
考点:故事类短文。
点评:完形填空所用的短文一般不给标题,但短文的主题句,往往在每段文章的首句,有时也出现在文章的中间或结束处。主题句提供全篇的性质、大意等,这是深入了解全文的“窗口”,甚至能以语句为立足点,从该句的时态、语气推测全文的主要内容。
